[Babsbabs]

December goal is to get back down to my previous maintenance range of under 150 again. My start weight is higher than I hope my true weight is as I had every flavour of chips that I like last night

12/04 MD 151.0 worked out to approx 800 cals of potatoes, couldn't eat to UD calories due to lack of appetite.
12/05 MD 149.2 approx 800 calories
12/06 DD 148.8 350 calories, finished 5 days of eating potatoes.

12/17 UD 149.0 day with no Christmas events and still an UUAD
12/18 PDD 152.0
12/19 UD 150.4
12/20 DD 151 DD turned into UD with dinner out
12/21 DD 152.2 today is going to be the perfect DD
12/22 UD 151.4
12/23 DD 153.0 more of a UD
12/24 MD 154 it looks like I am JUDDDing in reverse! I am enjoying myself but looks like I will have a few extra pounds to lose in January.
12/25 UD 154 Merry Christmas!
12/26 DD 154.6 was more of a MD/UD
12/27 UD 154.4
12/28 DD 155 should be a good DD today as our our family visitors are going home today.
12/29 UD 154.2
12/30 PDD 152.4 this was after a (finally) reasonable UD of mostly potatoes and a normal dinner.
12/31 UD 151 wow what a month! I am back to where I got to at the beginning of December and very grateful to be here! I can't believe all of the great food I enjoyed this month with very little weight gain as compared to other years. I am looking forward to a much easier January

Thanks, they are scary. I also went through the heart cath (all clear!) and go every 6 months to have an echo done. I do have heart issues (left ventricular hypertrophy (thickening of the wall)) and a small aortic aneurism so it does scare me a bit when unusual feelings show their head! But, I can't stop living because of it -- just take care of myself the best I can!

Which is why I'm here -- get this weight to normal and get and stay healthy!!!!!

Thank you - me too! Pretty sure it was influenza. Symptoms were a bit different than the last time (2010), but they match a lot of Influenza A cases I've been working on this last week.

I was very happy to see the scale today.

Take care of you! Chest pain is a truly frightening thing.
